  1. Yeah Marc - that one is for sure worth ?
  2. Will do that one - probably on monday. ?
  3. Yes thats a wonderful guitar - will soon get back into a video soon.
  4. Hey Mark, nice to have you here ?
  5. I will start with the Guitar Talk - Live Streams this or the next week. The idea is that you can ask me questions in the chat on YouTube and I show you how to solve your problem and in between I play a bit guitar when no questions are here. So the more questions you have the more interesting this live guitar talk will be for you. Now here comes the main problem. At which time shall this be. I already made a voting on YouTube but I want that members on the HPCRazy Students Club are benefited - so here's the vote again about the time this guitar talk shall take place. You can also give suggestions what I can talk about....
  6. This is a common topic since the guitar is not a visual instrument. On the keyboard it is way easier to memorize scales and intervals. The best thing is to know the pentatonic really really by heart in all positions and knowing the intervals. From that on you can develop your scale skills further since all scales are related to the minor or major pentatonic. I think I will make a tutorial about this on monday.
  7. Doctor Doctor is in fact a fun song. The rhythm guitar is not such a big problem. Just powerchords ?
  8. Hey Crusy Clad - cool nic ? yes this one also works with Blues Licks and Blues - Tone control is always a major topic when it comes to lead guitar. And thanks for the feedback about my teaching ?
  9. I have always been a huge fan of Steve Vai. For me is still the unchallenged number one rock guitar player. It's about time to make it to make a tutorial about his types of instrumental rock ballads. They often come along in the measure of 6/8. I created a track in the key of E minor in the measure of 6/8 and in this tutorial I show you how the rhythm guitar is played and after that very short introduction to 6/8 rhythm guitar I going to give you some easy going instructions how to create great rock balade lead sounds and how to create those long notes which make them so great. The really great feature of Steve Vai’s guitar playing is it absolute perfect tone control in every situation of lead guitar. I give you some insight how you can work with slight pinch harmonics and slipping the tone into overtones and to create great long notes with your lead guitar. So this tutorial doesn't really talk about how to do the typical Steve Vai guitar licks. It’s more about tone control and how you can control with your tone with your vibrato, your bendings and the distortion settings in combination with pinch harmonics.

  15. I was jamming a bit in the sudio today and thought I give it a shot and just record since I loved to jam to this track here. But for once it's not a track of mine - see below. You can give it a try yourself. It's in D minor and you best play the D aeolian scale to this track.
  16. I just go to know this track and I love it - i will check out your suggestion.
  17. Yes thats true. Thats part of the nice guitar sound he has. Playing with the thumb has a lot a advantages when it comes to a nice and fat sound but quite a lot disadvantages when if comes to playing fast.
  18. Here you can learn the magic which is behind the song Midnight Blues by Snowy White. Somebody recommend this song to me and wanted to know if I can do a tutorial about it so I analyzed this song and wanted to find out why became so popular even though there is no official recording available on YouTube. There are three things which make the magic of this song. First of all to Form. It is a simple musical form with the chords E minor C and D but the way they are arranged through the song and the way the arrangement is building up makes the real magic of this song I give more information about this in the video but he'll find the chords displayed. I have skipped the intro. First Part Em / C D / Em / Em Em C / D / Em / C D Em / Em / Em / C D Em / Em / Em C / D Em / Em Second Part - Repeats itself C / D / Em / Em C / D / Em / Em C / D / Em / Em C / D / Em / Em Em C / D / Em / Em 2 : The second signature thing is the sound of the lead guitar. One part of the sound is the sound setting which is probably a vibrolux amp or something similar and the other part is the playing technique as you create this sweet sound which is basically just played with the E minor Pentatonic. I'll show you some tricks and some examples how you can get this sweet sound and how you can have a dynamic expression with his clean sound which has only reverb as an effect. 3 : The third signature thing is the catching the moment of an emotion into music. Blues is a music style which has a lot to do with emotion the sadness and loss and if you don't feel the same emotions probably you cannot play blues. From my personal experience and the experience of other players I know that the best recordings happened in moments where you really feel this moment of sadness and loss or slight depression. But of course you can also play blues if you don't feel sad but at least you have the experience that you probably lost a dear friend or lost your relation partner or something similar and you can put these emotions into your play. midnight blues snowy white.mp3 Here you find an other tutorial to this topic here :
  19. It's also cool to play only rhythm guitar - with these instructions you can now also play some lead guitar. It's not too hard too play ?
  20. Slow Blues ( The Jack Style ) Here you can learn a Slow Blues in the style of “ The Jack “ by ACDC. This is a blues with 60 BPM and in the key of E. First I going to show you the chords and the chord riff which is played and which make the signature sound of this Blues and then I going to show you a simple improvisation with the Question - Answer - Resolution “ concept. The concept works like this : You first play a motive which represents the question then play It again. After that you play the answer then play the question again and at the end comes the resolution. This is the improvisation concept which is used conscious or unconscious in most of the Blues compositions and blues improvisations. I show you the musical motifs in detail and with the proper timing. That way you understand how you can variate them in a easy way by just making variations on the timing signature. If you want to play the Jack by ACDC exactly the way as it played just listen to the original song and adapt the chords and the chord riff you learned here to the chords which are used there. But they are more or less the same and the riff is a very common blues riff which got famous by the song of AC DC. The chords which are used here are : E7 / E7 / E7 / E7 / A7 / A7 / E7 / E7 / B / A7 / E7 / B Slow Blues E ( The Jack Style ) .pdf Slow Blues E ( The Jack Style ) .gp slow blues ( The Jack Style ).mp3
